I activated a tmobile hotspot for when I spend time in the San Juan Islands, because on at least one island TMo is the only provider. The service and hotspot were quite reliable. While at home - a rural area of northern CA, my fiber provider (which is also the backhaul for Verizon - my primary cell provider) went down for a couple days. The TMo hotspot was reliable, performant and served up both the work I needed to do and streaming TV just fine. $50/mo with no penalty to activate/deactivate made me a fan. Years ago, TMo sucked a lot in the Santa Cruz area.
